Features
The newly designed GPSMAP 62st handheld navigator is loaded with amazing features. It
gives you a 3-axis tilt-compensated compass, a barometric altimeter and supports
Custom Maps, BirdsEye Satellite imagery (subscription required) and photo navigation.
Not only is it waterproof, its quad helix antenna gives you unmatched reception. It
also has a high-speed USB connection, a beautiful new design and connects wirelessly
to compatible Garmin handhelds.
Become and explorer
The GPSMAP 62st is perfect for climbing at hiking. It comes preloaded with US 100k
topographic map data for the continental US, along with a worldwide basemap with
shaded relief. Your maps show you national, state and local parks and forests, and
terrain contours, elevation, trails, rivers, lakes and points of interest.
Know where you are
A 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass is built in to your GPSMAP 62st, so
you’ll know your heading even if you aren’t standing still or holding it level. And
the barometric altimeter tracks pressure changes to give you an accurate altitude
reading. You can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which helps you
anticipate changing weather.
Go social
Your GPSMAP 62st allows you to share waypoints, tracks, geocaches and routes
wirelessly with other compatible Garmin devices. Just press “send” to transfer your
information to your friends.
Know where you are
GPSMAP 62st has a quad helix antenna that combines with high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled
GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction to determine your location quickly and
accurately, no matter your surrounding terrain.
Customize your maps
With Garmin’s collection of detailed topographic, marine and road maps, you can add
and customize your GPSMAP 62st’ maps by using its onboard memory to download 24K and
100k topo maps for your day on the trails. If you’re hitting the water, just insert
BlueChart g2 preloaded cards. And if you’re preparing for a road trip, City Navigator
NT map data provides turn-by-turn directions. GPSMAP 62st supports subscription-based
BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, which integrates satellite images with your maps. And,
GPSMAP 62st is compatible with the free software Custom Maps, which transforms paper
and electronic maps into downloadable files.
All your data in one place
With a connection to your computer and the internet, you can get detailed analysis of
your activities, and send tracks to your outdoor device with Garmin Connect. You’ll
get activity tables and a chance to see your activities on a Google Earth map. You
can explore routes uploaded by millions of Garmin Connect users, and share your
experience on Twitter and Facebook.
A geocacher’s dream
Your GPSMAP 62st can download geocaching GPX files. Your paperless geocaching not
only helps the environment, but makes your geocaching easier. GPSMAP 62st stores and
displays key details, including terrain, location, difficulty, hints and
descriptions. You won’t need any more printouts or manually-entered coordinates.
Just upload the GPX file to your unit and start hunting.
